Answer
No, drawing the last card in your deck does not cause you to "refresh" or recycle your trash.
In Riftbound, you only perform a "Burn Out" (which includes recycling your trash into your Main Deck) if you are instructed to draw a card and your Main Deck is empty.
According to Rule 413.4 and Rule 431.1:
- Drawing the last card: As long as there is at least one card in your deck, you simply draw it normally. Your deck is now empty, but no penalty or action is triggered.
- Attempting to draw from an empty deck: If you are instructed to draw a card while your deck is already empty, you trigger a Burn Out. Per Rule 431.2, you must then:
- Recycle your trash into your Main Deck (randomizing it).
- Choose an opponent to gain 1 point.
- Complete the original draw instruction.
